13. An advantage to keeping the size of a group of riders small is:

A small group is less easily separated in traffic than a larger group.

A small group can disregard traffic laws to stay together.

Riders will always be trying to catch up to the group.

It will be difficult to keep track of where everyone is.

There are several advantages to keeping groups of riders small. In comparison to a large group, a small group is easier for other vehicles to pass safely, is less likely to get separated by traffic or stop lights, and creates less need for slower riders to hurry to catch up to the rest of the group.

14. Which of the following surfaces provides the best traction for a motorcycle?

A gravel road

Dry pavement

Mud

Lane markings

A number of surfaces can provide poor traction for tires. Wet pavement; roads covered in loose gravel or sand; muddy, snowy, or icy areas; painted lane markings; and metal covers and plates in the road can be more hazardous for a motorcyclist than dry pavement.

15. A face shield:

Provides protection for the eyes and face.

Is not recommended.

Is required.

Does not protect the face as well as goggles.

A plastic, impact-resistant face shield provides the greatest degree of protection for a wearer's eyes and face. Eyeglasses or sunglasses are not an adequate substitute. In Vermont, you are not legally required to wear eye or face protection if your motorcycle has a windshield, though it is recommended.

16. Increase your following distance:

If the roadway is slippery.

If there are only a few vehicles on the roadway.

If the sun is shining.

If drivers are following the speed limit.

An expanded cushion of space is needed if your motorcycle will take longer than normal to stop. If the pavement is slippery, if you cannot see through the vehicle ahead of you, or if traffic is heavy and another driver may try to squeeze in front of you, open up your following distance.

17. In general, riders should:

Pick one lane position and always use it.

Change lane positions frequently to prevent monotony.

Choose a lane position that maximizes their space cushion.

Never use the center lane position.

Because road and traffic conditions are always changing, the safest lane position is also always changing. Choose the position that will maximize your space cushion and allow other drivers to see you most easily.

18. When following another vehicle as a beginning rider, you should:

Maintain a minimum four-second following distance.

Get as close to the other vehicle as possible.

Never be concerned about your following distance.

Always ride in the left portion of the lane so the driver can easily see you.

A following distance of at least four seconds is recommended for beginning riders. Increase your following distance any time conditions are less than perfect.
